Westport ska tydligen vara världens största tillverkare av naturgasmotorer. (Undrar var de sitter nånstans?)
I pressmeddelandena antyds att expansion för europamarknaden ligger för ögonen.

In October 2011, Westport Innovations acquired Alternative Fuel
Vehicle Sweden AB (AFV) of Gothenburg, Sweden. AFV is the sole
supplier of natural gas fuel systems to Volvo Car Company
(VCC) .
Volvo dealers in Sweden have offered a bi-fuel 231 hp 2.5 -litre
turbocharged version of the popular V70 wagon, with the
natural gas fuel system engineered and installed by AFV, since
2009. The Volvo V70 Bi-Fuel has been approved as a company
car for Swedish businesses, and Swedish drivers can fuel up at
more than one hundred public natural gas filling stations. In
addition to emissions benefits, corporate and private customers
are eligible for tax incentives that make natural gas an even
more economical alternative. AFV now aims to expand into
other European markets. AFV builds and installs the natural gas
systems at facilities located inside VCC’ s main production center
in Gothenburg.
